If you have the goods, they can pretty much charge you any time they want. There is no time limit. It is not in their best interests to wait since they are out the inventory, but if they wanted to they could.

If you're physically handing them the card, it's immediate. If it's online or a debit card, it's by the next business day usually. Unless you're buying something from an online merchant that specifies your card will be charged when your stuff is shipped.

It depends on the transaction type. If it's a PIN based transaction, it is debited from your account almost immediately. If it's a signature based transaction you can expect typically 1-7 business days, but they can charge it whenever they want and as long as they have your signature on file for the initial charge, you can't really contest it. A business I used to work for would do this - Alot of transactions wouldn't be processed until almost a year after the initial transaction, but we had the signature and we won every dispute because of that signature.

how ever long they want! in michigan ! at least!
It screwed me over one gas station did it every 3 months and i end up with over 100 bucks in over charges becuase of this!
The only way to ensure no overdraft is stay ontop of what has went through and what hasn't!
Most places will go weekly or monthly to get there money! I think my sistuation was due to miss placing my CC slips!

Due to all the differences in the answers provided by individuals it appears a professional involved with credit card machines should provide the answer.
